I have a problem with using external camera in Python OpenCV. I am using Windows. In device manager, camera is not under "Cameras", but under "Imaging devices" and is called USB3 Vision compliant camera. The camera is working fine on app given by company (UcamViewer).
I want to connect to this camera using cv2.VideoCapture().
I have of course tried:
cv2.VideoCapture(k)
for k = [0..100] Only k = 0 is occupied and works - that is my webcam.
I have also tried adding multiple possible values to the second parameter of the VideoCapture(), which did not work.
how to get video from a "USB3 Vision" device? This question suggested to use cv.CAP_XIMEA as the second parameter of VideoCapture(), but CAP_XIMEA does not seem to be a possible value.
If I can not fix this issue and use VideoCapture(), what would you suggest to use to capture the video and convert it to format that can be used by openCV methods?
Any ideas how could I solve this issue will be appreciated. Thank you for your help.
